A proud alumna of ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG and ÿÈÕ´ó¹Ï, Mrs. Gewirtz brings a wealth of experience, vision, and dedication to the role. Known for her dynamic approach to education, her ability to develop innovative programs, and her commitment to student growth, Mrs. Gewirtz embodies the mission and values of ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG. She has impressed the school community with her unique insights into student development, faculty collaboration, and academic excellence, alongside a deep dedication to Torah and Jewish education.

Mrs. Gewirtz’s academic and professional credentials reflect her lifelong commitment to chinuch. She earned a bachelor’s degree in Judaic Studies, with a minor in Business, from Stern College for Women and a master’s degree in Jewish Education from the Azrieli Graduate School of Jewish Education and Administration. Additionally, she holds a Master of Social Work from the Wurzweiler School of Social Work and is a licensed social worker. Before college, she spent a year studying at Michlelet Mevaseret Yerushalayim in Jerusalem. 

In her most recent role as Dean of Students at ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG, Mrs. Gewirtz played a pivotal role in fostering a supportive and thriving environment for students. During the 2024–2025 school year, she partnered with Associate Principal Ms. Leah Moskovich to guide the school through a period of transition. Ms. Moskovich will continue her role as Associate Principal, working closely with Mrs. Gewirtz to lead the school forward. 

Together, Mrs. Gewirtz and Ms. Moskovich will ensure ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG remains a leading institution in Jewish education, deeply integrated with ÿÈÕ´ó¹Ï, Stern College for Women, and the Sy Syms School of Business. 

The school also expressed its gratitude to outgoing principal Ms. Bracha Rutner for her years of exceptional leadership, dedication, and impactful contributions to ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG. Although Mrs. Gewirtz’s official start date is several months away, she remains an active leader within the school. In the coming months, ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG plans to provide opportunities for parents and community members to connect with her and hear more about her vision for the school’s continued success. 

The ÿÈÕ´ó¹ÏHSG community looks forward to this new chapter under Mrs. Gewirtz’s leadership.
